Is it just me, or is it not very feminist to blame any choices a woman makes that you disagree with on a man, or men in general?

Some women can be just as stupid, cruel, or short-sighted as some men can be; blaming their poor choices on the men around them implies that they have no free will of their own unless they're doing something you approve ( Read more... )

annoyance, do not want, serious business

Stupidity is genderless -- fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it.

Bones icon! :D

I noticed when the radical feminist started yelling that anyone who tried to hold a woman at least partially responsible for her behavior and reactions in a bad situation is an asshole, because OBVIOUSLY she'd been BRAINWASHED and there was NO WAY that she could have done anything else. :| (Especially since no one is blaming the woman for the situation itself-- well, one guy was, but he got dogpiled and seems to be sulking. )

Of course, this same woman got outraged over the fact we were getting outraged over child rape instead of over the fact that the news article being discussed didn't use the word "rape" in its headline. (Nevermind that, looking at the laws of the state the paper and crime were both based in, it would be legally liable for calling it rape before the rapists were convicted.)

Boonnnnes I love Bones to death; I'm eating up the novels as well xD

Ugh, that's so obnoxious. What a lot of radical feminists (or radicals of any group at all) don't seem to understand is, that while discrimination is a form of inequality, demanding special treatment and benefits just because you're a member of this group is also inequality.

I'm in love with the show, so much~ except when it does stupid things like... everything with Zack (Zach? However it's officially spelled) and the failgasm of the polyamorous!Bones episode. BUT OTHERWISE.

Yeaaaaah. :| She's. A BIT CRAZY. And has been nominated for Trolldom, but I'm pretty sure she's not actually trolling.

Pfffffhahahahahahahaha! I forgot that one! XD

I know, right? You're pretty sure they couldn't be possibly be serious... but then you look at how serious they are, and persistent, and wonder if they really think like that. *shudders*
